Is romantic love a matter of choice

Reference no: EM133320942

Question 1: Is it healthier to have unconditional love in a relationship or is it healthier to have boundaries?

(Things to consider: Should Stella have taken Stanley back at the end of scene 3? What factored into her decision to take him back? Should Stella allow Blanche to stay with her and Stanley? Should Stella tolerate the way Blanche and Stanley talk to her and treat her?)

Question 2: Are you morally obligated to intervene if you think a friend or family member is involved in a toxic or abusive relationship?

(Things to consider: Different characters have different reactions to Blanche and Stanley's fight. Blanche is appalled and goes to intervene. But, Eunice and Mitch act like it is perfectly natural. Who is right? Is it Blache's place to intervene? Do Eunice and Mitch not intervene because this happens in the 1940's in Louisiana? Is the response of the characters indicative of the culture and setting or do things like this happen now?)

Question #3: Is romantic love a matter of choice?

(Things to Consider: What percentage of a romantic relationship is based on physical attraction? Are Stanley and Stella in love or in lust? What is the difference? Do you need to have emotional walls up to protect yourself in an emotional relationship? At what point should you let them down?)

Question #4: Can we excuse someone's behavior because of the past trauma they have experienced? Or does this only provide an explanation, and not an excuse?

(Things to Consider: Does the trauma that Blanche has experienced make the way she talks to and treats people acceptable? Is Blanche defined by her PTSD, or other mental illnesses? Can we understand where someone is coming from, while still holding them accountable?)
